The color was a richer blue, which was nice. The sequins on the sleeves caught the light and were very pretty. It was the perfect dress for the banquet & I did not feel that it was too short.

Really comfortable dress, but boxy.

Size worn: M

Overall fit: True to Size

Rented for: Party

I wore this dress a month after having a baby so it was perfect to hide my leftover belly. The dress feels a bit matronly so I paired it with super high heels. I felt confident but not sure I would recommend this dress for someone who wants to feel super sexy.

loved this dress...but it was pretty large

Size worn: XS

Overall fit: Large

Rented for: Party

I loved this dress a lot, but the XS was still too big for me. I had to add my own belt to give my waist some definition, otherwise it just looked like a designer nightgown. I was still able to jazz the look up a bit and make it my own with my added accessories.

My new favorite dress!

Size worn: M

Overall fit: True to Size

Rented for: Party

Great neutral dress with fun added details from the sparkly cuffs. I loved the fit, even though it was loose fitting it concealed a troublesome middle section but is short enough where you don't feel like you are going out in a sheet. I am 5'4 so I thought that the dress was a great length but taller people may find it to be a bit short. I didn't want to send this dress back and I will definitely consider renting this one again.

Super comfortable fit, the detail on the sleeves is gorgeous. The neck is cut really wide so you're going to need a strapless bra with it. Killed me to send it back!

This is a super flattering dress. I wore it to my friend's 21st birthday party and got many compliments. It is nice and flowy, so no need to worry if you have a large meal! Pair it with some high heels and it will really show off your legs.

The Fit was great, and this dress was sooooo comfortable. I could have gone one size smaller than the Medium, but since it wasn't tight fitting, didn't have to worry about how much I ate at dinner and look bloated LOL. The length was perfect, not too short, not too long. I had a lot of compliments on this dress.

The fit runs large, I usually wear a medium but the small fit great. I have long legs, and dresses usually look way too short on me. Not the case, this dress fits perfect. The dress is flattering on all the right places. It was the perfect look for my birthday celebration!!

This dress was very comfortable and flattering. I did not feel like showing a lot of skin in the winter time and I was feeling a little pasty so this worked out perfectly! The small seemed to run a little big so I would go a size down if you are petite. I also wore this with tights so it didn't seem too short.

Super fun dress! Felt amazing. Working with RTR couldn't have been easier!

Size worn: M

Overall fit: True to Size

Rented for: Formal Affair

This dress is a lovely navy silk mini, perfect for an apple body type like mine. Showcases the legs and hides a less than perfect midsection. The length is on the shorter side, but going up a size adds more fabric around the middle, so I stuck with the medium and used self tanner on the legs and great sparkley black peep toe pumps! Very flattering boat neckline. Perfect for a winter event as arms were covered but I still felt dressed up and formal. Wore Badgley Mischka Anne Crystal Earrings which were amazing with this dress. Package was delivered on time and returns were an absolute breeze. Will use RTR again for sure!

Total comfort at a formal event. Unheard of.

Size worn: S

Overall fit: True to Size

Rented for: Formal Affair

The dress was sooo comfortable all night and I liked the look of the platforms with the darker alittle more opaque hose. The dress did not come in a medium, which I would have liked to have tried to see if it was a little longer. The detailing at the sleeve was really nice and the material was perfect. This would have been a good dress for a springtime formal with a nude leg. It would have been the perfect dress if it was 1.5 inches longer. All in all, a really nice dress to rent for a black tie, because it is so different. Mary Kate and Ashley are great designers!

Not my typical style, still got lots of compliments

Size worn: M

Overall fit: Large

Rented for: Party

I ordered this dress as my back-up dress and got a small and a medium because everyone said it ran large. It does. Ideally, there would have been a small and a half for it to fit perfectly up top and I typically wear a medium. I wore spanx but ended up taking them off after dinner because it didn't matter. I wore a normal bra with it. All in all the dress performed as everyone before me suggested, it simply wasn't my style so I felt kind "meh" in it, although I got compliments all night on my "classy" dress.

Size worn: XS

I normally wear a small but the XS actually fit better for this dress on me. The small was definitely a larger small fit, and the XS was perfect for me. It's super cute, extremely comfortable and I got tons of compliments. I would highly recommend it!

Delivery didn't work out even though I put a rush on it. I ended up going to the courier drop off in Manhattan to pick it up myself.. But the dress was a huge hit with my coworkers, they thought I looked great! If you have a large bust, the fabric might pull up top a little bit. Love the sparkly details on the sleeve. I loved that its dressy yet comfortable.

It was a great dress - I would rent it again in a heart beat. Wore it for a Fall wedding, and it was perfect (with the sleeves, it added a bit of warmth for an outdoor ceremony). It is a bit short (I am 5' 9"), so be advised if you are looking for something longer. Received tons of compliments from people at the wedding that I didn't know (including the cliche bathroom comments that RTR is notorious for!)

Overall fit: True to Size

Rented for: Party

Loved this dress - it was so comfortable and fit perfectly. The detail on the sleeves added the perfect touch to dress it up for a holiday party. I wore the small which fit perfectly everywhere, but was just a tiny bit short (definitely couldn't bend over!) -- but wearing it with tights made it more comfortable. Overall I was very happy with it! Wish I owned it because I would love to wear it again ;)

This dress was great for dancing--with just the perfect amount of glitter and give!

Size worn: XS

Overall fit: Large

Rented for: Party

A very loose dress, I ended up wearing the extra small. I thought it was going to be a little too short, but because it's so free flowing and long-sleeved, it ends up being the perfect length. I love the glitter details on the sleeve, and with a statement necklace, you have just enough pop to turn heads without being too showy. I like how the shoulders were a little off centered to show just a little bit of clavicle. The material is silky and comfortable. This would be a great dress to hide a little winter plumpness in the belly, or what I prefer, being comfortable enough to dance all night in!

Perfect Holiday Party Dress

Size worn: XS

Overall fit: Large

Rented for: Party

This dress runs LARGE! It was the perfect combination of classy and sexy. The length on the XS was about an inch shorter than finger tip length on me. I wore this dress with really high heels to make up for the loose fit. I got a lot of compliments and felt comfortable all night. I really liked the opening on the back too.

Super cute dress! I am usually a small, but I went with the XS because the small felt so baggy. Also, the length was much better when I sized down! Would definitely recommend this dress if you are at all self-conscious about your midsection - doesn't show a thing!

i wore a leopard belt to cinch my waist, because otherwise the dress was a little plain. the glittered part of the sleeves kept losing its thread, even though i was the first person to wear it because the tag was on when it arrived. the dress was okay for the event, but i would never have purchased this dress had it been in a store, and i won't rent it again.

Great Bump-friendly dress!

Size worn: L

Overall fit: True to Size

Rented for: Wedding

I wore this dress to a fall wedding 7 months pregnant. And before anyone freaks out, the seams were not at risk of stretching at all! This is a really roomy dress normally, so it had a plenty of space to fit a smaller baby bump in it. I normally would have worn a medium or possibly even a small in this dress w/o being pregnant. This dress is classy and sophisticated and not over the top in anyway, but it will definitely make you stand out! I wore it with black tights and over the knee black boots.

I LOVE THIS DRESS

Size worn: M

Overall fit: Large

Rented for: Party

I love, love, love this dress. It has just the right amount of swing to the bodice...does not cling to any ufortuante areas and really shows off legs to great advantage. Also, it hangs just enough off the shoulders to show a little clavicle and shoulder...very sexy. The beading on the sleeves do not show up well enough in the picture. I got A LOT of comliments on this one. I might have to purchase it for my own.

Backup dress for a wedding back in October

Size worn: None

Overall fit: Large

Rented for: Wedding

I rented this dress as my backup for a friend's wedding in October 2012. I did not end up wearing it since I fell in love with my blue sequined Badgley Mischka but this dress was adorable. The slight bell sleeves are sequined in a fun yet elegant way. I would recommend this for a party or a more casual event and not necessarily a wedding.

Great dress for anyone who is extra body conscience.

Size worn: S

Overall fit: Large

Rented for: Wedding

Had extra water weight on, so I was looking for a dress that made me look like my normal self and this one did it! The draw back is tat it runs big and with the boat neck opening you need a strapless or wider set bra. I had this dress sent to the wedding location and didn't have the right bra and couldn't wear it : (
